InterDigital Escalates Patent Dispute with Disney Over VP9 Technology

InterDigital has escalated its patent dispute with Disney by claiming that the entertainment giant's use of VP9 technology infringes on its patents. The Delaware-headquartered company, which specializes in advanced research and development across wireless, video, and AI technologies, recently won several major injunctions against Disney over other video encoding and compression innovations.

The move comes after InterDigital argued that Disney's use of VP9 technology also infringes on its patents. This marks a significant expansion of the patent litigation between the two companies, with the stakes potentially high for both parties involved.
